Incidence of eyelid basal cell carcinoma in England: 2000–2010

Abstract

The findings provide the current frequency and distribution of eyelid BCCs in England, highlighting opportunities for health education and improving reporting and registration of events, and for informing service planning.

Report on the incidence of squamous cell carcinomas affecting the eyelids in England over a 15-year period (2000–2014)

“…However, it is interesting to draw a parallel with a recent study of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) incidence in England,13 which found that men were at increased risk aged over 50 but women were at increased risk in the 0–49 age group.…”

Malignant Eyelid Tumors in India: A Study of 536 Asian Indian Patients

“…Overall, BCC is the most common malignant eyelid tumor in the world [1, 40], with a male predilection [41]. However, it has been reported that eyelid BCC is more common in young females (< 50 years) [39].…”

Epidemiology of Eyelid Malignancies in Indian Asians: The Importance of Being Earnest

“…They also found that the relative risk of eyelid SCC in men compared with women was 1.9. In a similar study over 11 years (2000–2010), Saleh et al [8] found that unlike SCC, no major change in the age-standardized incidence of BCC was observed during the period between 2000 and 2010 in England. Overall, the age-standardized incidence of BCCs during the period between 2008 and 2010 was similar for males and females (4.51 per 100,000 and 4.53 per 100,000, respectively).…”
